The lovely short teaser shows the precious moments between Ganta and Isaki, the two protagonists. From encountering each other in a forgotten corner of the school to discovering themselves more, both the kids have a long journey ahead of them.

It is a beautiful school life manga that shows the lives of two individuals who get inevitably connected to each other. Ganta always comes off as irritable to others, but only Isaki knows that it’s because of his lack of sleep.

Soon, they realize that they are comfortable around each other and can sleep in peace in their own corner in the school.

Will the anime do justice to this incredible manga? I hope that the studio which picks it up doesn’t miss out on its dreamy vibe.
